Jan, well said and best wishes with your rehab. You've a painful road ahead, but at least you're still around to walk it and didn't take anybody else out

How many Soarers can you get for $425,000 worth of Lambo?

Jan, sorry to hear it was you, or anyone else we know, for that matter. As said above we are glad you are alive, and able to tell the tale.

It coulda been a LOT worse . Take heart, rehabilitate, recover and get WELL .

Have to agree somewhat with Stephen there - it does piss me off when people hoon up our quiet suburban street with two schools on it (happens all the time as its a long, straight uphill street) But its good that nobody, including Jan was badly hurt.

I think Jan made it pretty clear what he now understands, so we can afford to be happy no-one else became involved and that he is alive to know better and to pass the message on. Therefore, he has my best wishes for a quick and full recovery.

Good to hear you are on your way to recovery Jan, and am glad to read you have learnt from your mistake.

In saying that i think that i can safely say that all forum members have had brian exposions/acted like fools at times, either exceeding the speed limit massively (well maybe not 178 in 50 but hey), driven drunk or taken uneccessary risks... i know i have contributed my fair share in my earlier days of driving when feeling invinsible.

so yeah, get well soon dude, and say hi to Mic for me!

I drove around the back end of lake Taupo a few years ago (when they used to have to sign post speed cameras) in my UZZ30 - a very windey, little travelled road of slightly over 100KM, and the speedo didnt drop much below about 130 all the way - many times up onto the limiter, tail out with full oposite lock many times. Looking back it was really stupid - but damn it was fun too.
